This vintage book of directions for making Macrame Plant Hangers or rather Macrame Pot Hangers and this huge twine were in the donations my friend Donna gave to my art teacher friend Bob.
In the seventies, I never used such a thick rope but instead a thinner white cord and some wooden beads.
Macrame belts were holding up lots of bell bottom jeans when I was in college.
Do you or have you ever done macrame?
I used to do it all the time. Now if I could find an old book like this, I would start again. A couple of years ago I went on the hunt but, alas, I could not find one. 🙁
Yes! Did it. Belts, pot hangers, guitar straps…all of it!
I have not but my sister in law at the time was really into it.
I bought pot hangers from craft shows and loved them! They were a sign of the times!
I’d forgotten all about macrame. Yes, I made a macrame belt and plant hanger. If only I still had them.
You’d be right in style, all over again Audrey. Thanks for your visits and comments.
My mom had a macrame plant holder just as you describe – white cord and wooden beads! This reminds me that I should get some plants in the house (but probably minus the macrame)…
